In the Summer 2025 issue of Style at Home Magazine, designer Samantha Pynn features Tonic Living in the article, “The Art of Excess.” She shares practical tips for embracing maximalism, from layering bold patterns and rich colours to mixing in beloved objets. If you love the look of colour drenching and pattern drenching but are nervous your space will feel overdone, Samantha suggests approaching maximalism in stages: start with a colour palette, then get playful with textures and patterns. Our Arren Stripe 12x24 Lumbar Pillow, Chambray is featured in a vibrant entryway filled with fresh green and blue, and pops of bold black and white. It’s the perfect example of how pillows and fabrics can offer a simple, stylish entry point into maximalist design.

Our popular Arren Stripe Pillow in Chambray makes another appearance, this time in the article “Natural Beauty.” Designer Louis Duncan-He showcases a Calgary home that blends transitional coastal style with vibrant colour, creating a family-friendly and functional space. In the serene, polished bedroom, the 20x20 pillow adds a perfect touch of softness and pattern. We also loved seeing our Berken Medallion 16x42 Bolster in Oyster styled on the bed. Although that size and colourway is no longer available, the Berken Medallion Fabric, Pewter is still part of our collection. For a similar look, try our Finn Stripe 16x42 Bolster Pillow, Natural.

In the article “French Twist,” designer Anne McNamara reimagines a Georgian Bay beach house with a modern coastal Hamptons aesthetic layered with elegant French country charm. The result is a stylish and timeless summer retreat that feels both breezy and sophisticated. We spy our Lasha 20x20 Pillow, Natural peeking out in the airy front entryway, adding a soft, textural detail to the bench seating and perfectly complementing the relaxed, refined look. At the end of the feature, the magazine includes a decor inspiration section where our Finn Stripe 22x22 Pillow, Denim is highlighted as a way to achieve that coastal meets French country look.
